The Rabbi landed in Israel from the US on Tuesday morning for a 10-day visit, during which time he will greet his Satmar Hassidim, meet with other ultra-Orthodox leaders, and distribute money to institutions that do not accept funding from the state.

The Satmar hassidic community is fiercely anti-Zionist due its belief that Zionism was an attempt to force God’s hand into bringing the messiah, and as such its community in Israel refuses to accept any funding from the state.

Who among the Charedi leadership will finally admit the emperor has no clothes?.
That Rebbes follow “how to lead a cult for dummies” and force their herd to focus on superficial things to be accepted. That this groupthink and craziness isn’t Judaism? People are seeing through this charade more and more Baruch HaShem.

Hello. Help me out. Weren’t the roads and highways that the Rebbe drive in from the airport to Jerusalem built by “the Medina”??? Don’t the baggage handlers that shlep this luggage off the plane work for “the Medina”??? I’m not sure how they differentiate

If their Bais Medrash would Ch”V be on fire wouldn’t they call the “Medina’s” Fire dept???

Maybe it’s time for THIS Rebbe to change this old tune and teach his thousands of followers that THIS MEDINA is here to stay BECAUSE HASHEM IS ALLOWING it to stay. If He wasn’t happy with it, it would’ve been destroyed a long time ago. Perhaps it’s time to start working WITH ALL our brothers and sisters. No matter their affiliation. We are ALL Hashems children.

This misconception that the Satmar Ruv/Rebbe Tz”l had anything against Eretz Yisroel is based on ignorance that is still used to kill achdus.
We ALL need to be mevater for true and complete Achdus for HK”bH

Where is the electricity for the celebration coming from? How about the water ? Garbage and sewage handled by whom? Was celebration held in in Ramallah or Jericho? Was order and security provided by the PA? Can we please learn to express differences without characterizing the other as Goyim or Nazis?! Enough !
